Project: Blended Learning Activity

Overview

Instructional Design Project = 100 points total (Either solo or in a pair of two, three reports, all connected throughout the semester).

The Instructional Design Project will deal with an instructional opportunity or problem that is authentic and REAL.  This will consist of three major separate reports throughout the semester (Reports 1, 2 and 3). For each part, you will prepare a report which addresses components that are directly connected to the information described in your text and in our presentations. At the end of the Instructional Design Project, you will have done three reports which will collectively provide all of the analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation for a given block of instruction.

Due Dates

  • Project, report 1: Pre-instructional Components (25 points, Due: the 1st day of Module 7)
  • Project, report 2: Instructional Components (Due: the 1st day of Module 13)
  • Project, report 3: Post-instructional Components (Due: the last day of Module 15)

REPORT 1 – Pre-instructional Components

THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF THE INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN PROJECT. Report 1 is all about getting started with a real instructional issue and context. You will need to immerse yourself into the CONTEXT of the instructional scenario and APPLY the CONTENT of the text in order to write your report.

You will need to thoroughly gain insight into the components of each report.

The details of these Reports are briefly listed below – for further explanation of each component, please see the text.

THE MOST IMPORTANT PARTS OF REPORT 1 ARE THE FOLLOWING COMPONENTS:

Report 1 – Pre-instructional Components: 25 Points

  • State the context of your instructional analysis: Exactly where and in what setting will you be analyzing the instruction?
  • The rationale for the selection of context
  • Description of context
  • Description of learners (demographics, details, etc.)
  • Performance context of learners and implications for instruction
  • Instructional goal statement – what are the learners supposed to be learning?
  • Goal analysis – a breakdown of the instructional goals
  • Subskills analysis – a list and reflection of the skills needed to perform the instructional goals
  • Entry behavior analysis – what can the learners already do in relation to the instructional goals?

Due on the first day of Module 7. Type up the report in Word, then save it as a PDF file and submit it in Moodle. APA format. The length will vary among students and topics
